it should work on any machine that can run a java vm. make sure that you've set the "JAVA_HOME" and "TOMCAT_HOME" environment variables.... set "JAVA_HOME" to the jvm directory (e.g. c:\jdk.1.3.1) and "TOMCAT_HOME" to the tomcat dir (e.g. c:\jakarta-tomcat).... j

i alredy follow instructions given by someone else. i already did all the instructions.. 1)After you download tomcat from the net,U will get a zip file. 2)Extract that zip file to your drive eg D drive.U just need to right click the zip file and select the drive to extract it to. 3)Automatically a folder called jakarta-tomcat will be created in that specific drive. 4)Rename the folder to tomcat. 5)There will be a folder called webapps inside tomcat containing 4 war files. 6) Open up winzip and in this go to first war file and select extract to the same folder ie suppose the first war file is admin.war.create a new folder admin in webapps and extract contents of admin.war to it.similarily for all the other three files. 7)Go to environment variables in NT and 2000.set path as==> TOMCAT_HOME with value Drivename:\tomcat 8)similarily set JAVA_HOME with value Drivename:\jdkx.x here x.x being the version. IF it is a 95 system set the above paths in autoexec.bat. Now go to bin and run startup. U will hopefully see a window popping up from which a new one will pop up. Now u are up and running

Send a reply if u have nay queries. ///////exctracted from someone else/////// problem that i have right now is ... i cannot access http://localhost:8080 .. error page.. what should i do
